They came, they conquered, they left
Doing what they did best
We were never united, kid yourself not
Kingdoms, perpetually at war
I try to be patriotic
Towards all life forms
Planetary, intergalactic
United colours of the cosmic world
Independence, complete
Easier said than done
Happiness, in itself
Closer at bay
Dependence, quite a way of life
So say the husband and the wife
The dog that depends on you for food
Just about every single parasite
Celebrate today, tomorrow, and the day aft
Not independence, but life
Yours, his, hers, theirs
And depend on it
